Title: Kite vs Pitou, The Hunters Arrive...

…

-General POV-

Kite seeing that Gon and Killua start to run away, he sighs in relief. He can help and buy them some time to escape.

Jax also sees this but he decides to ignore Gon and Killua, in favor of seeing the fight between Kite and Pitou.

Kite summons his Crazy Slots Hatsu. Which takes the form of a small, clown like creature floating next to him.

As soon as the creature is summoned it just says in a joking tone. "Hyahahaha it seems like you are in quite a pinch now sucker. Looks like a good number is coming up."

Pitou just looks at this and says with an interested voice. "Ooh... so even something like that is possible."

….

But Killua while running away had a whole different thought process. While he is carrying Gon on his back he can't help but criticise his and Gon's actions. 'We were conceited, Kite is stronger than both of us combined even when he lost an arm. That is his conclusion… that is reality. If Kite had been alone… things probably wouldn't have ended up like this. We were… total idiots.'

The uncompromising reality has set down on Killua.

….

Back at Jax, he is just looking at Kite's crazy slots and after a second of analysing he finally came to a conclusion. 'The chosen ability isn't radom. Kite actually cheated his own condition, that… is smart. The Miniature Clown is an intelligent being, and when it sees the situation it judges the best ability that Kite will need. Kite of course will never admit it or his Nen might actually weaken his ability or even backlash and lose the Hatsu completely. If I knew what exact conditions he put in his Hatsu, I could create a copy of the ability. Hmmm… that is quite a creative way to go with your ability, the danger of actually being careful to not speak about the condition cheating might empower his Nen. Absolutely amazing, no wonder Ging is called one of the Top 5 Nen users. As his student, Kite learned quite a lot from him.'

…

Kite just looks at the enemy in front of him, this… is monstrous. He has never felt such Nen before. Crazy Slots has chosen the ability… and he knows that he is most likely to die in this fight. But before that happens, the least that he can do is hope that his death is enough to activate this Rebirth ability.

'Her inexperience was shown when she simply jumped her way here, she simply follows her instincts on how to attack. It left her open, but I made the mistake of being worried for Killua and Gon, to take that chance to attack… it was the best chance, it is unlikely she will be airborne for an attack anymore. Well it wouldn't matter anyway, I doubt I would have been able to run from this type of monster even if I had two arms.' Thinks Kite, as he takes a breath and his Nen flows out of his body.

When Neferpitou sees this, her eyes form into slits, she smiles at this. Her aura gushes out too, but unlike Kite, she has an unclear aura flow, it was chaotic and had almost no finesse to it.

*boom*

The ground under Pitou cracks as she attacks Kite. Though the difference in speed between the two is huge, and Pitou almost created a sonic boom. Kite is still able to dodge by jumping to the side. He already predicted that this is how the inexperienced Pitou will attack.

Due to Pitou using too much power in the charge. She was about to crash into a tree, but she maneuvers her body to kick off the tree but…

*crash*

The tree is immediately snapped as soon as foot touches the tree. Kite takes this moment of confusion and mistake on Pitou's part to make an attack with all of his power. He uses KO and concentrates 100% of his Aura in the tip of his Rebirth Key…

*fwish*

Pitou is able to dodge that attack by instinctively doing a backflip, but Kite predicted this and as she is midair, his attack changes direction.

*baam*

Hitting Pitou in the cheek.

*crash*

And she crashes into another tree breaking it. She now has a small scratch wound on her cheek.

Suddenly… a large gash of blood appeared in Kite's chest. His eyes widened a little from the pain.

While he attacked Pitou, she in that split second while she was being flung away used her tail to attack Kite at the same time.

….

On the other hand, Jax, who sees this, gets up to leave. He knows how the rest of the battle will go. Kite is already tired and suffering from blood loss. His Nen Ability which is activated by his death, and the 'chance' of getting the rebirth key thing.

'It seems like Kite will have to be reborn. In another five minutes probably even less the fight will be over… maybe longer if Pitou decides to play with her prey.' Thinks Jax, as he walks away, neither Kite nor Pitou were able to sense his movement. After all… if Jax doesn't want to be found… then he won't be found. It is as simple as that, his Nen is completely silent, as if he never existed to begin with.

….

…

At dawn Killua and an unconscious Gon were under a giant tree, Killua was tired so was sitting and breathing heavily due to the long journey and exhaustion that he had due to having to carry Gon with him too. Gon was lying on the ground next to him.

Suddenly Killua hears the sound of a car engine. Coming from the opposite direction where he came from before. He looks towards the vehicle and sees that it is a military truck.

Three figures come out of it, one is a tall man, with white hair and wearing sunglasses, he also has a big smoking pipe on his hand, he has it swung over his shoulder. He is Morel.

Next is a man wearing a neat suit and reading glasses. He has neatly combed hair and his hands are in his pockets. He is Knov.

The last person is someone Killua is very familiar with, he has a white pony tail and a white beard with the tip of his beard being a gray black. He is walking on his strange wood sandals and wearing a white yukata. He is Netero. The hunter's association chairman.

When Morel sees Killua he just smiles and says. "Whaddya know? It's just a little kid. This is what happens when you play with fire. Hurry on home now kid."

Knov just adjusts his glasses when he hears this. He says to Morel. "C'mon now Morel don't be so harsh on him… he is just a child after all."

Killia doesn't say anything at this and just keeps his head down. He isn't someone who would be riled up by something like this. He is someone raised by the best assassins after all.

When Netero sees Killua's demeanor, he has an amused smile on his face as he laughs softly. "Ho ho ho. You look like you had it quite rough. Hmm..?"

Then Netero's expression changes to a little amused even as Killua looks up a little. He sees the absolute terrified look Killua has on his face.

"Were they really that intimidating?" Asked Netero, while his mind was thinking in the future fight that he might enjoy.

Killua looks Netero in the eyes as he says. "...One of them knew how to use Nen."

He then recalls the Aura that Pitou released.

"It was the creepiest Aura that I have ever come across." States Killua as he tries to compare Pitou's Aura with the people that he has encountered in his journey. 'More terrifying than my brother… more than Hisoka.' Contemplates Killua.

Killua looks at Netero, Knov and Morel in front of him, sensing their Aura.

"...Because I have learned Nen myself I can tell… you guys are extremely strong. However I don't think you will be able to win against that monster."

"How about me then." Suddenly a voice comes from the close by distance. A man is walking towards them with slow and steady steps. He has black hair which was sweeped backwards with only one long strand in front of his face, and brown eyes. Which have a certain terrifying light on them. But none of that was important as what everyone is concentrating in is…

THE TERRIFYING AURA COMING OUT OF HIM.

….

A/N: This is how the Pitou and Kite fight went from my observation and research that I did. I know that in the show it was shown as dawn when the fight was finished. But most likely Pitou was playing with him and the scratch on her cheek is only due to her lack of experience and Pitou fighting mostly on instinct. It is shown repeatedly that Pitou and the other Royal Guards (even the King actually) lack fighting experience. That is why people who have even less than 10% of their raw power can hold them back. The same situation with Kite and Pitou, except that Kite already has lost an arm and he has drawn the rebirth key thing from his crazy slots. Which most likely doesn't have a lot of fighting potential due to the things main ability being rebirth.

P.S: Also I analysed Kite's ability and I always wondered why the intelligent clown thing after all, it does 'annoy' him… then it hit me… Kite used a loophole in his ability to be able to get the best option for the situation.

P.P.S: The MC didn't interfere with Kite vs Pitou fight... because it doesn't have any benefits to him and it wouldn't be as entertaining to him if Kite survived.
